Hi! My name is Azucena, but you can call me Suzy. I have over 7 years of experience providing child care for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. I began babysitting in 2016, starting with an agency before transitioning to caring for families on a part-time basis and helping out on date nights. My past responsibilities have included school and summer camp pick-ups, as well as homework help. I’m a big fan of arts and crafts and love playing board games! I’m currently available for occasional babysitting and date nights, and I’d love the opportunity to support your family. Looking forward to connecting!
“Suzy arrived early, asked very thorough questions and was very engaging with our kids. The children had a great time and look forward to playing again soon! ”
Hello, Im Maggie. I’m 25 years old. I have long term experience in childcare and looked after children of all age groups. I’m a Former Youth Development Specialist/Program Facilitator in MCPS for over 3 years. I also worked for the City of Gaithersburg with youth for 2 years. I organized many activities and community events. I worked with many children ranging from Elementary - High school. I am comfortable with big groups since my cohorts ranged from 10-20 students at a time. As a mother of 1, I can understand how hard it can be to find reliable and trustworthy care for your children. Which is why I provide child care on the side to bring ease to as many families as I can. We all need a break or even some help at times. I hope I can bring some light and comfort to your family. Feel free to reach out to me at anytime 😊
Hello! My name is Chloé, and I have a background in college-level engineering studies, with several years of professional childcare, tutoring, and after-school teaching experience. I am also stepping into a role as a paraeducator with Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS). My experience ranges from infants through school-age children and includes recurring infant care, after-school care, transportation, meals, and bedtime routines. As someone with a STEM background, I'm also comfortable providing homework support. From March 2024 to October 2025, I worked as an after-school teacher at Lafayette Elementary with students from pre-K through fifth grade and provided French and math tutoring at Maryvale Elementary. I also speak English and French. My private-family experience includes infant and school-age care, multi-child care, school pickups and transportation, overnight and extended care, and supporting children with ADHD and autism. I recently provided care for an infant, beginning when she was two months old, including both full-time and recurring care arrangements. My responsibilities included feeding, diaper changes, naps, tummy time, teething support, developmental play, maintaining routines, cleaning and sanitizing bottles, toys, and baby items, infant laundry, and keeping the baby’s spaces clean and organized. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and prioritize safety, structure, and positive engagement. I’m calm, communicative, attentive, and comfortable following established routines. Because of my daytime school schedule, my regular availability is Monday through Friday after 3:30 PM, as well as fully open and flexible schedules on Saturdays and Sundays. I’m currently seeking recurring care during these afternoons, evenings, and weekends, with some scheduling flexibility depending on the family's needs. I’m also open to occasional evening, weekend, overnight, and extended care.

Hi! My name is Carol. I have more than 6 years of experience in and out the country, with children of all ages, since newborns to teenagers. I also worked in a preschool for almost 2 years before I moved to United States. I love taking care of kids and empathize with them! Keeping them safe is my priority and making them happy is my best job!!🤗
“Carol is awesome! She has been working for our family four days a week for more than 6 months. She is incredibly reliable and responsible; she is an excellent driver, and she drives my kids to their after-school activities around Bethesda. She always arrives on time and has never missed a day. She is thoughtful and diligent about her work for our family. She is responsible for our two adolescent boys after school, she prepares meals for the kids, helps us manage the household, and she is responsive to any tasks we need her help with. She has been a tremendous resource to our family and I whole-heartedly recommend her.”
